PLEASURES AND TREASURES...

ABOUND IN THE NEW WILFORD & LEE!



The brand new Wilford & Lee just opened two weeks ago, in fact they are still stocking some of their shelves. However they have a wonderful selection already! This is their fourth store with Ft. Myers being the largest and main store. Kate, the manager told me if you see something, for instance a lamp but want two, never fear as they will transfer items between the two stores. They can check in the computer and find whatever it is you want.

It is a big store, the walls are already filled with beautiful wall art and metal sculpture pieces. I loved the set of three metal philodendron leaves that were life size and brushed with silver from Copper Art at $250. Copper Art has some stunning pieces through out the store.

Bring a new look to your interior with the many accessories such as long leaves in deep frames at $29.95 each. I noticed quite a few things with a leaf motif. Four candle holders on a long leaf $32.95. Also a large selection of candles in all colors.

Add stylish accents with some of the many accent tables and chests that were well priced. The two I looked at were $199. and $230. Add a lamp and some small accessories and you have a new look for your foyer that says WELCOME!

Time after time...need to know the time? There is a whole wall of clocks of every description from big to small.

A whole row of colorful place mats and napkins. Baskets of napkin rings. I want those that have a silver sand dollar, seahorse, star fish or turtle on a rattan ring for only $3.95. Great for our Florida living! Speaking of Florida living there were ceramic serving dishes in several sizes of leaves, a generous size for $31.95. A whole section of tropical accents perfect for our area. Colorful serving pieces, fun palm trees, mermaids and little beach chairs. The picture frames were darling and a huge selection. What better way to display your children or grandchildren on the beach than in a frame that looks like sand with tiny footprints on it! Also irresistible was the one that looked like a chickee hut with raffia on top, only $11.95!

Displayed on a large plate stand was a black plate with a tan palm frond wrapping around the side , I think it was made of wood at $120.00.Absolutely stunning!

I saw some cool copper floor planters that stood on metal stands the larger one $84.95 and the medium $69.95. They would look nice grouped together.

There were shelves of all kinds of pottery and ceramics that would make it hard to choose! I just wonder what is going on those empty shelves!

Kate told me they are going to carry a lot more on the contempory side. I found two beautiful contempory lamps that almost followed me home!! The floor lamp only $198. and the table lamp $130. Kate told me they have the best prices in town...I believe her!

I am sure you could find a place for the beautiful silver cranes with streamlined simplicity at $49.95 and $59.95.

Don't forget they have an area rug department with very colorful choices and great prices!

In a case toward the front of the store you will find some silver jewelry, with a section that was 75% off! I saw earrings as low as $2.00!

Take some time to shop in this new store...it is a pleasure!
